Amaru University was founded in 2017 in memoriam of the late Activitst, Tupac Amaru Shakur. At the age of 17, young Shakur gave an outline for what he believed a school's curriculum should look like. He believed in teaching the youth about life. Based on his views, we at Thrift Element Aparrel Co. have created a learning center based on the different subjects that will ultimately prepare us for what is to come in the world.
